I've just been playing the second level, and after completing all the secondary objectives, I reached the shield near the Covenant base. As I was attacking the Covenant units next to the shield, my cursor got stuck on the outside of the map boundaries! I can't even target the shield power source and continue the game. Will I have to restart the level, and thus redo all the secondary objectives (including finding the skull and black box)? I saved the game just before I discovered this glitch, so I can't reload to a point where the camera was free.

Same thing happened to me inside the relic on the 3rd mission.

Im afraid you are going to have to start again and redo all of the secondary objectives again in order to get back to the point that you were at.

Its frustrating that this wasnt spotted by ES before release as it appears to be a common glitch.

Gah! Well, thanks for letting me know.

Wait until you get to mission 6.

That Scarab has a mind of it's own and it will occasionaly just destroy all the cover, even if there are no units in it's vision.

You'd think it would stop firing after one shot, but it just keeps hammering away until it just vapourises you.

I noticed this when I played that level the first time. The Scarab is intermitent, sometimes it will not shoot the cover infront of your base, giving you more time to plot its downfall and others it will just focus on the ruins and keep firing until it destroys all cover and your base behind it. Its just down to luck as to which mood the scarabs AI is in.

Yikes! Sounds like I've got a lot to "look forward to". Still, hopefully I'll catch the Scarab in a good mood.

I managed to redo the secondary objectives on the second mission, and got a bronze medal. As long as I don't run into more glitches that keep me from completing the mission, this could be a great game.

Odd...I always manged to at least come away with a silver, I even have a few gold.

The only other real glitch I've encountered is when the Arbiter is in rage mode and attacks a newly spawned pack of grunts, their bodies can get stuck in the spawning point of the base. It has no Ill effects though.

Well yeah, its supposed to do that, as Forge say someting like that we got the stones to cover us, but not forever. something in that direction.

yes, but the scarab is supposed to shoot at youy units when it sees it.  Now, unless someone proves me otherwise, the scarab cant see through walls, or just randomly attack your cover when ever it feels like it

 I'm probably just bad at that mission, or took too long completing it (can you only get silver or gold medals by completing the secondary objectives as well?).

It did it rather early, on my second playthrough, it never did it.

If the glitch happens try recentering your camera using the thumbstick. That sometimes fixes it.

 

The Scarab is supposed to own you if you dont try and kill it. After abit he figured out you are behind the buildings and he will just take you out.

 

 

That made me and my friends laugh, it just started attacking and wouldnt stop, we was sooo close to killing in aswell. :(

Im pretty sure its not, but it only happened to me because i was been careless.
